Needing advice, I've always used an ordinary welding helmet and currently using a GYS spaceview that I really like however I'm wanting something that will protect my lungs. I've been having a look on google and other threads on these forums but there's too many choices and they ain't cheap. Looking at the PAPR welding helmet setups the parweld xr950a looks good for welding/grinding as the welding screen moves out of the way instead of needing to flip the whole helmet up like with some of them which would be handy so wondering what peoples thoughts are on these helmets?
I like the screen size of my GYS spaceview however their PAPR welding helmet only looks useful for welding so I looked at the Cleanspace 2 as it would mean I can keep using my normal helmet but doesn't look comfortable if I'm lying down so any opinion's on this?
Another thing I've thought about is using a air fed half mask with a compressor.
I've looked at the ESAB helmet but I like the look of the parweld better, I know the ESAB gets a lot of love.
Hoping I can get some opinions, cheers.
